December is knocking at the door and the weather is definitely cooling down. Kab Jae Lee and his daughter, Yu Jin, prepared festive and cozy prompts for us for December. We hope you enjoy this season ahead. 🎄⛄🎁🧦

More about Lee Kab Jae:

Lee Kab Jae is an artist who uses light materials such as paper as a medium to express the heavy burden of life and of ‘home’ through a series of works such as ‘Collage City’ and ‘The Age of Lightness’.

A friendly word of caution

We’ve learned from experience that making a drawing every single day is a great challenge but can also become quite stressful. It is up to you how you tackle this challenge. If you are feeling ambitious, challenge yourself to make a drawing a day. If you’d like to spend more time with one prompt that is completely fine too. It’s 100% up to you.

The year is coming to an end. Leaves are changing color and falling to the ground. November is here and we asked artist Lee Yu Min to make us a list of prompts for the month. Her prompts are sure to warm your heart and soul. We hope they inspire you to doodle in a cozy, warm place with a nice cup of tea or coffee.

More about Yu Min:

Yu Min’s paintings are as lovely as her smile. The girls, dogs, and cats appearing in the work are who we are. Every day is as heart-warming as a fairy tale. Just as a warm spring is coming after a cold winter, I want to present happiness to everyone.

She is the lead artist of Daejeon Metropolitan City, and is currently running the ‘Cultural Space LEEU’.

The prompts for September have been prepared by Rosalie Osborn Knaack, an artist, and all-around inspirational person living in Okcheon (near Daejeon).

Rosalie has her solo exhibition Impressions, a solo exhibition happening at Small Window Big Landscape Gallery (작은창큰풍경협동조합) from September 2 until September 16. Do check it out if you are in Daejeon!

Here are some of the pieces and work that she’ ha’s been working on lately. Follow the progress of her work and the studio on Instagram.

More about Rosalie:

As a child, Rosalie grew up moving frequently, so it’s no surprise that she moved to Korea. The surprise is that she has stayed so long! In the last 15 years, Rosalie studied ceramics at Konyang National University, settled in her home in Okcheon- along with her spouse and clowder of cats- and established a small ceramic studio. She teaches English, art history, and sustainable agriculture during the week at JoongBu University, and hosts ceramics classes at her studio on the weekends.

While ceramics may be Rosalie’s artistic focus, she is excited to try any method of artistic expression. She started out in the arts as a musician, getting a degree in music in 2005 and performing in a variety of musicals and operas until going to graduate school for ceramic design in 2012. Over the years, Rosalie has explored painting, drawing, metal working, lino printing, mono printing, decorative knot making, cyanotype, and any other technique that came her way.

For several years, Rosalie’s artwork focused on exploring life, death, and the interconnectedness of species through skulls, skeletons, and botanical imagery. She tries to show the value of all life, and that we should focus on living our lives to the fullest rather than fearing death.

Death came into clear focus worldwide with the coronavirus pandemic. As we all spent years staying home and social distancing, Rosalie shifted her attention to her immediate environment.

“I looked around me, at my yard, at my village, and thought about how our surroundings influence us. What impressions do they make on us? My recent work and my prompts for 2022 look at the world immediately surrounding me- the plants and animals, the change of the season. Fall reminds us that the end of the year is coming, but there is so much beauty in the end, and the new beginning of Spring will be here before we know it.”

Our prompts for August have been prepared by Reginald age 6, and Lockwood age 4. We hope that their unique prompts will get your creative juices flowing. Their prompts definitely provide an opportunity for some great character design or even an excuse to play with repetitive patterns.

Reg is a creative young artist. Check out more of his work on Instagram.
